PUL-I-KHUMRI (Pajhwok): Provincial Council (PC) members of northern Baghlan province on Thursday warned the province would fall to Taliban if urgent security measures were not adopted to ward-off looming threats.
But security officials said clearing operations were underway to purge several areas of militants.
Last week militants captured three bases and 20 check-posts after severe fighting in Dand-i-Ghori locality and Baghlan-i-Markazi district.
